Remarks by SLW at media session regarding facilitation measures for voters of 2025 Legislative Council General Election 
Reporter: How does these Outreach Polling Stations benefit the elderly voters?
 
Secretary for Labour and Welfare: It is the first time we set up Outreach Polling Stations in three destinations in Hong Kong. This one in Kwu Tung is the biggest one. Alice (the Permanent Secretary for Labour and Welfare, Ms Alice Lau) and I visited this polling station this morning. The operation and the whole procedure are very smooth. We spoke to elderly people as well as workers here, all of them expressed great satisfaction with the arrangement. They are very happy with the convenience provided to them. It’s saving them time.
 
     For those who are on wheelchairs, it is a hugely easier journey. Instead of traveling out and then going back to homes, they only have to take the lift on their wheelchairs, just take them a few minutes to complete the whole procedure of voting. So it’s a very smooth and successful operation. Thank you very much.

(Please also refer to the Chinese portion of the remarks.)

CFS urges public not to consume a batch of imported canned shredded pork and preserved vegetable found with possibly excessive Sulfamethazine

Source: Hong Kong Government special administrative region – 4

     The Centre for Food Safety (CFS) of the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department today (December 7) urged the public not to consume a batch of imported canned shredded pork and preserved vegetable, as the product was found to possibly contain an excessive amount of Sulfamethazine, a veterinary drug residue. The trade should stop using or selling the affected batch of the product immediately if they possess it.

     Product details are as follows:

Product name: Ma Ling Shredded Pork and Preserved Vegetable
Brand: Ma Ling
Place of origin: China
Net weight: 240 grams
Best-before date: April 7, 2028
Distributor: Champion Fair Limited

     A spokesman for the CFS said, “The CFS noted a notification from the Macao authority that the above-mentioned product was detected with an excessive amount of Sulfamethazine. Upon learning of the incident, the CFS immediately followed up. A preliminary investigation found that the above-mentioned distributor had imported into Hong Kong the affected batch of the product concerned.”

     The distributor concerned has stopped sales, removed from shelves the affected batch of the product, and initiated a recall according to the CFS’s instructions. Members of the public may call the distributor’s hotline at 2766 0128 during office hours for enquiries about the recall.

     “Sulfamethazine is a sulfonamide antimicrobial drug. According to the detected level of the veterinary drug residue found by the relevant authority in the sample concerned, occasional consumption will not cause adverse health effect. However, consumption on a long-term basis may cause hypersensitivity and damage to the urinary system,” the spokesman added.

     The spokesman urged members of the public who had bought the affected batch of the product to stop consuming it. The trade should also stop using or selling the product concerned immediately.

     The CFS has alerted the trade to the incident, and will continue to follow up and take appropriate action. An investigation is ongoing.
